“Unashamedly political yet deeply humane, it’s a difficult journey that is well worth the trouble.” Time Out New York

A fantasia inspired by E. M. Forster’s A Passage to India, Passage is set in the fictional Country X, colonized by Country Y. It is a meditation on how power imbalances affect personal and interpersonal dynamics and a drama about nationalism and colonialism and how they impact the friendship between a native of each country. How can citizens of two very different nations cope, relate, converse, and interact with each other? This is a thoughtfully told story about the current state of our world.
